Also, what would happen if you said on social media that you thought the tiananmen square massacre was an atrocity?

Literally nothing. Discussion and much more intense criticism of the Deng Xiaoping government's handling of the June 4th incident exists on xiaohongshu.

Are you really so daft that you believe people are getting thrown in prison for internet comments? They simply delete the garbage.

Virtually every Chinese person has access to a VPN. The government does not care. Because the goal isn't total control over the information sphere, but rather to make Facebook slow and inconvenient enough that you decide to use Weibo instead. The western internet is blocked as industrial policy to advantage native Chinese companies and prevent the west from having algorithmic dominance over the information sphere of the Chinese public.

If you believe that the government is seriously concerned about Chinese people being exposed to a typical reddit anti-china circlejerk, it is you who has fallen for the propaganda. How would China be able to handle students studying abroad coming home after being enlightened?

Ok. Call it prison then. Same issue.

It's not because it doesn't happen please read what I said before replying.

Nothing usually maybe your post might get removed if you stray too far from criticism towards spreading nonsense. (Oh the horror I know).

Also, if you don’t feel it’s an authoritarian government, what do you call it?

A government. Authoritarian is a meaningless pejorative used mainly by white liberals to denote country they don't like. All modern governments are "authoritarian" in that they wield power to enforce laws etc.

The videogame thing. What country are you referring to here?

Very obviously the US and it's vassals.

Since games were coming out of many different countries and most of the consoles were out of Japan. Who exactly there is your enemy?

Most of Europe and Japan are for all intents and purposes US vassals (especially Japan). The US has been trying to undermine and destroy modern China for decades through propaganda attacks as well as actions such as funding terrorists.

And if all of it was to block propaganda and misinformation from other countries, that implies that China was the only source of information you were allowed to know of growing up?

It doesn't imply that at all.

You don’t feel like that was oppressive at all?

No. It was an entirely reasonable action.
